very disappointing!
NOT a good tape; the songs are super cheesy, and are also the same songs on her 'disco' tape; ... Usually she has good tapes, but not this time!

Walkfit with some other Kathy Smith Cassette
I found this tape disappointing - usually I like Kathy Smith, but this one wasn't up to her usual standard.The selections weren't especially energizing.If you're not a country music fan, there's just no reason to buy this tape.

Pump up the Pace:Walk fit with Kathy SmithAuido tape
I have been using this paticular tape for the last five years in my walking program for weight loss.I have had great success with it, I have lost a total of 108lbs and most important I have kept it off.I am very disipointed to find that it is no longer in print, because my copy is getting old and does not play as well as it has.Read more

Great Tape!
I have owned this walking workout for several years and I love it.It's so much better than simply listening to the radio while walking, because the beat of the music keeps you on pace.It gradually gets more intense,so you have time to catch your breath.I keep hoping Kathy Smith willproduce more tapes.

Excellent walking work-out companion!
Kathy Smith is great! I first began using her aerobic video, so when I became interested in walking for weight loss, I bought this tape along with her other "Walking for Weight Loss"The tapes are excellent forkeeping me paced at a fat burning level, keeping me motivated. There are 4workouts on this tape, (2) 30-min, (1) 40-min and (1) 60-minute, sodepending on what kind of workout I want, it's all in one set! ... Read more

How One Book "Shaped" A Life....
I received this book in 1980 when I was fifteen years old. The funny thing is, I don't really remember how it came to me. Did I receive it as a gift? Did I buy it? I don't really remember, all I remember is that I owned a copy of this book and it really changed my life.
Makes you go to sleep.
This is a long over written book, I know Arnold has lot to say about body building, but the text is so boringly written, it should be sold as a sleeping pill.

The Pump.. It's Great Right?
The Education of a Bodybuilder is one of the greatest books I've read. Obviously it's in no comparison to say MacBeth or something like that, but it is as entertaining as it is educational. In the first portion of the book Arnold tells his life story of how he got into bodybuilding, his trial and error process, and ultimately leads up to his first Olmpia win. There are many great stories in between that make both for a good laugh, and also serve as motivation. Secondly, there is a section in the middle that has many of his photos from various contests, teen-Olmypia's. The last part of the book is an intro to certain styles of lifting and techniques, followed by some programs/splits to use as you progress. Overall, I'de say it's the best book I've ever read but that may be because I idolize Arnold and respect the work ethnic he had to become in my eyes the greatest bodybuilder of all time. Either way, I think anyone even semi-interested in exercise, bodybuiling or even a good read will thoroughly enjoy it. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Arnold Schwarzenegger hasn't competed as a bodybuilder since he won the Mr. Olympia title in 1980, but he remains the sport's No. 1 icon. He hosts an annual bodybuilding contest in Columbus, Ohio, and allows a column to be ghost-written under his name in a muscle magazine. Today's bodybuilders may have bigger muscles than Arnold ever did, but everyone inside and outside the iron game gives him credit for exponentially broadening the popularity of physique training.Read more

Wonderful, Comprehensive, User-Friendly... But Where Are the Women?!
With all of the other verbose reviews posted here extolling the various perks of this massive encyclopedia, I will merely say succinctly that "The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding" nearly covers the sport from A to Z without missing a beat.It is a great reference book and I have been finding it very inspirational whenever I set out to develop a new routine for myself.The many personal stories told in Arnold's friendly voice are also generally interesting, and the chapters dealing more specifically with competitions and nutrition are noteworthy.
The Most Comprehensive Book Of It's Kind!
I originally bought this book around 20 years ago. I read it from cover to cover many times andlearned a tremendous amount! Years ago, I regrettably lent it out without ever getting it back so I recently bought another copy for my son when he started weight training.

She got me exercisiing
I enjoyed reading this book, and the 6 week program takes you from begiinner to knowing you can do this. I had done the program for 3 weeks in a row, hardly missing a day until my life got so busy. I felt stronger in those 3 weeks than I have in years. I have three girls to run after and I did feel more energy, and flexibility. I plan to continue my exercises with her and I ordered her Real World Fitness book as well. Don't dish her for using the celebrity's names. We all want to look a little like them, so lets read about them.

Nothing special in here.
A perfectly fine safe exercise program.There is nothing special in here, but there are no false claims (except for the implication that you can look like a star) either.I too found the style of the book to be corny.Thereis no diet information at all.Personally, I would recommend DeniseAustins "Jumpstart". That has an easy to follow diet plan, adecent exercise plan (for beginners only), and her encouraging thoughts ofthe day.

The exercises are good, but same as her video
I already had the Target and Tone video by Kathy Kaehler (and I absolutelylove it!) and I ordered this book to have something to alternate with byher. The book, though, is almost entirely the same exercises as the thatvideo tape. The "Hollywood" format with stories of celebrities iscute but corny and doesn't seem to inspire. I don't seem to rememberClaudia Schiffer or Michelle Pfeiffer having to lose weight (or ansubstantial amount of weight), but they are used as examples of dedication.Who among the "real world" will rise at 4:30 a.m. to exercise?Anyway, if you have her T & T video, skip this book. If you need agood, safe routine to start with from scratch, it's $12 or so well spent.Read more
